Please note:

The Descriptive English test will be of qualifying nature and the marks in English Language will not be counted for ranking.
There are sectional cut-offs which candidates need to obtain. Similarly, candidates must also obtain aggregate cut-off marks to qualify.
Marks obtained in Main examination plus marks obtained in the interview will be considered for final merit listing.
There will be negative marking of 0.25 marks in both sections of the paper.

Interview

Marks obtained in the Mains Examination will be considered for shortlisting for the Interview. The interview will be held for 60 marks.

For the Interview, candidates for around 3 times the number of vacancies will be invited. So for example, if there are 100 vacancies, 300 or so candidates will qualify for this stage from the Mains exam.
